Each year the Irish Youth Foundation asks companies and their employees around Ireland to donate one hour of their salary to raise money to help vulnerable and at-risk children get the care and love they need as part of our Children's Hour campaign. These are children who have to deal with very difficult and challenging home lives, often experiencing the effects of poverty, parental alcoholism and drug addiction, abuse and mental illness.

All the money raised through Children's Hour is distributed to voluntary and community groups all over Ireland who work with these kids to give them a better life. Here is a map of the 100 plus 'Children's Hour Wishes' we have received from around the country so far.
